fluxkernel··on Show HN: EloqDoc: MongoDB-compatible doc DB with object storage as first citizen
Typically a separate archive database is not desired choice. You need to specify the rule how old the data is move from production database to archive database. Also the archive database is read only and slow, you can not achieve transaction between production database and archive database.

fluxkernel··on Typed languages are better suited for vibecoding
All existing programming languages are designed for human beings. Is it the right time to design something that is specifically for vibe coding? For example, ease of read/understanding is probably much more important than all the syntactic sugars to reduce typing. Creating ten ways to accomplish the same task is not useful for LLMs.
fluxkernel··on Learnable Programming (2012)
